I'm sick and tired of the White House ramming BS Legislation/Law Changing crap down the People's throats thru Executive Power, or Congress making Laws that many States want no part of. Maybe 'we' really do need a major succession vote for the United States. We could be called the "Independent States of America"! Texas would probably be the first in line to do it.
It certainly is food for thought; how our age-old laws can finally be amended and brought up-to-date to serve the people of the respective Kingdoms, with the Union intact, remaining together under one flag and aiming towards a common goal of prosperity and unity whilst having the ability to self-govern for the greater good. Something like this could serve the US if implemented correctly, your states would still be part of America and contribute to the whole whilst working as Independent states or as collective number of states so that power is devolved to give greater autonomy rather than a living under the rule of a body that is not serving the best interests of the people, not representing the views of the people and failing to listen and act upon your concerns.
I certainly hope if something like this could benefit America then the people should pursue this, even if the majority feels differently the minority still needs their voice. It has happened before in America but in the past it caused bloodshed and conflict whereas now I would hope a more civilised approach could be agreed upon.
I think for the UK it will take a while to implement and it won't be easy but at least there is the glimmer of hope to help our people move into what could be more of a golden age rather than what we have been through for many years now.
Good luck with whatever is best for the states, your people and America should this ever come to fruition.
